Local Fix:
The work around is to not to specify domain groups in the 
extended security panel. Instead, you can either; 
1) Use local user groups; or 
 
2) Not setup the DB2 extended security  during the install. 
Then, after the db2 installation is completed, set it up 
manually with some existing domain user groups.
